One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Keep Your Arms Out to Receive Blessings

Greetings from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania ! Things have been busy. I am still a working mom of three, working full time who is trying to make a difference. I do a lot of things and try to be present so that I can learn from them. I share them on this blog so that we can learn together. Below are some thoughts, hacks, and/or lessons that I have learned from navigating my world. The lesson I have learned recently is that the universe has reminders of the goodness that exists, we just have to look for them.  Life can test us in the most intense ways — and recently I have experienced that intensity. It’s been a season filled with emotional strain, logistical juggling, and moments where I question the laws of physics and fairness. But in the middle of this chaos, I have experienced some extraordinary, blessings that embodied grace-- when I least expected it.

Parenting, the good, the bad, the disgusting!

Motherhood has been an amazing journey. However, it requires flexibility, patience and a good sense of humor.

The other morning I found the baby in the crib with her diaper off. There was a pile of poop on the mattress, some on her hands, and on her mouth. Can you say, YUCK! Anyway, while her mom thought it was gross, she thought it was too funny.

I am desperately searching for a moral to this story.

H-E-L-P!!!
